A Tupelo man was denied bond in the case of molesting and sexual battery on a minor.
According to police, on November 22, the Tupelo Police Department responded to the NMMC Emergency Room for a report of molestation and sexual battery on a minor child.
The investigation of these allegations led police to charge 68-year-old William Lee Young of Tupelo, with Molesting (Touching a Child for Lustful Purposes) and Sexual Battery.
Young was arrested on December 1, 2022.
On December 2, Tupelo Municipal Court Judge Sumner ordered Young held without bond.
